WHAT WOULD YOU DO WITH £25,000?

Updating the BRIGHTWALTON PARISH PLAN means we could apply for up to c.£25,000 in grants over the next 5 years.

The first Parish Plan issued in 2004 helped us to receive grants of £15,000, which helped us to buy:

• New equipment in the play area
• An all weather surface cricket strip
• New benches in the play area
• Kit for young rugby players
• Bus shelter for school children
• Nursery School storage shed

DO YOU HAVE AN IDEA ON HOW TO IMPROVE BRIGHTWALTON?

Option 1: Visit the Parish Plan stand at the Christmas Fayre
Saturday 28th November 2009 - 2.00 - 4.00 p.m.
Brightwalton Village Hall

Option 2: Contact Jackie Boxall on 01488 638393 or jb@home.3b.co.uk with
your ideas and suggestions:

What are the best features of Brightwalton and how you suggest we can retain/improve them?
The problems with Brightwalton - what would you like to change and
how? Other suggestions or feedback?
And would you be willing to help address some of these areas?

Halloween Visitors best ever!

Brightwalton Village was very busy last night with lots of witches and vampires roaming the roads and door knocking for 'trick or treats', we nearly ran out of treats as a total of 14 knocked on our door.You all looked fabulous well done!

Broadband drop outs at Chaddleworth exchange.

Is anyone in Brightwalton and surrounding villages getting broadband drop outs, slow speeds or no broadband at all on some occasions?
We must all complain to our own ISP's to get this resolved, its terrible, we are paying for it and getting a useless service!

I have put it on the 'Newsflash' on the home page of our Brightwalton site, comments to that post would be welcome.

1on1 Experiences

A hands on chance to get up close and personal with some of the planets most amazing creatures, witness the speed of the falcons as they stoop from a height to catch the lure. Admire the silence of the owls as they gracefully land on your gloved fist and revel in the obedience and skill of the majestic hawks.

Our aim is not to teach you how to be falconers but to give you an insight in to our world and give you the opportunity to learn all about birds of prey and how and why we train these amazing birds. The session lasts approx.1 1/2 hours and costs £45.00.
